Introduction to Althanas

Welcome to Althanas, a unique hybrid of a role-playing forum and a writing workshop sporting literally thousands of completed threads. Our site lets you explore a vibrant fantasy world scarred by war and steeped in mystery, while at the same time receiving useful feedback to help you hone your writing skills. Below, you will find the rules of the forum, information on the different geographical regions that make up Althanas, and a "Getting Started" guide that will help you register your character and begin role-playing.

If you find that you have a questions about the rules, or a different topic that we did not cover, feel free to post a message in our Your Word forum - most days, you will receive an answer within an hour or two, and sometimes even within a few minutes. You can also visit the site's chat feature, located at the top of the page. The Althanas community is very friendly, and always willing to provide guidance.
